[QUOTE=BuffaloBill;40626183]Bloodstone on Death Prophet, that's beyond retarded.[/QUOTE] I'm so gonna beat your ass for that heresy when I get home.
[QUOTE=BuffaloBill;40626183]Bloodstone on Necrolyte makes sense, somewhat. Bloodstone on Death Prophet, that's beyond retarded. Drums and Eul's gives plenty of Regen.[/QUOTE] Who said anything about Death Prophet? For the record it did use to be a super good item on her for the reasons mentioned above. It's good, but not spectacular for her now. Again, if you can get it up quickly it's most effective.
[QUOTE=Harpie;40626206]Are you stupid or what[/QUOTE] I'm dead serious. Eul's gives enough mana regen to keep spamming your Q. [QUOTE=dual elites;40626278]Who said anything about Death Prophet?

It's absolutely fantastic for Heroes who need as much mana regen as possible (e.g. Storm Spirit/Timbersaw) but for DP/Necrolyte it's wasted gold. They don't need 5 bajillion mana per second.
So what are good items to build on DP?

[QUOTE=ThatSprite;40626433]So what are good items to build on DP?[/QUOTE] you're like necrolyte except instead of constant healing your survivability comes from being tanky and mobile. you also need mana regen to support your constant Crypt Swarm spam. therefore, eul's and drums is a perfect fit. you can also make good use of Rod of Atos, Halberd, maybe a Yasha, Pipe, Scythe, all the usual big Int items.
Western Qualifiers start in 30 minutes, right?
In one hour and a half.
I'm pretty sure it's half an hour actually
[QUOTE=BoxinShrimp;40625969]Speaking of Kunkka, what's his deal anyway? Does anyone here actually think he could be a ghost or something? It's something I've thought about, when dying his drowning sounds (While probably used to be comical) could be him repeating his death when his armada sank.[/QUOTE] I like the idea of him being a ghost, it makes his jolly personality all the more eerie. The cross scar on his forehead seems to be for an injury that would likely have killed him, but then again, he's on Radiant when virtually all dead heroes are on Dire, non-evil ones included. I suppose he's stated as only being [I]possibly[/I] dead, but still. [editline]goasts[/editline] [QUOTE=SgtWoodsy;40626202]Also if it seems like Tidebringer is hitting for more than 500 it's cause its AoE is 600 at rank 4.[/QUOTE] That, and it sits on top of his standard attack range, if it makes any difference.
I think this is pretty relevant to this game (and this genre for that matter): How do you calm yourself down after a particularly bad game?
[QUOTE=dual elites;40626609]I'm pretty sure it's half an hour actually[/QUOTE] Stream starts in 20 minutes, the first game is an hour later.

The only ones I see being non-evil are Death Prophet and Visage if he even counts.
[QUOTE=SgtWoodsy;40626650]I think this is pretty relevant to this game (and this genre for that matter): How do you calm yourself down after a particularly bad game?[/QUOTE] Stand up, leave the computer and go take a walk. I like to go to the gym if I'm on a loss streak, after doing a few lifts I always break my streak for some reason.
[QUOTE=BoxinShrimp;40626704]There are non-evil dead heroes on Dire? The only ones I see being non-evil are Death Prophet and Visage if he even counts.[/QUOTE] Dirge and clinkz are more tragic than evil.
[QUOTE=SgtWoodsy;40626650]I think this is pretty relevant to this game (and this genre for that matter): How do you calm yourself down after a particularly bad game?[/QUOTE] Have fun playing that bad game, or at least attempt it. Then there's usually no direct after-effects.
[QUOTE=K0ppel;40626712]Dirge and clinkz are more tragic than evil.[/QUOTE] Banehollow is pretty tragic too
[QUOTE=-nesto-;40626786]Banehollow is pretty tragic too[/QUOTE] He's not dead though.
[QUOTE=BoxinShrimp;40626795]He's not dead though.[/QUOTE] Oh shit I didn't read that part. I thought the old Good vs Evil discussion came up(again) my b
[QUOTE=Rarara;40618251]Whenever I search for a game and enter the loading screen, it returns to menu (after loading for a while) with error "Disconnected from server Unable to establish connection to server" How do I solve this?[/QUOTE] *cough*
[QUOTE=Rarara;40626851]*cough*[/QUOTE] I've had that happen before with a stack of friends. The server died and it "erases" the game, aka you're trying to connect to something that doesn't exist. Relauching Dota will put you back to the Find Match stage and you won't get an abandon.
[QUOTE=Harpie;40626531]Death Prophet and Necrolyte need HP and health regen as well, you know[/QUOTE] Yeah and for HP/Health Regen Bloodstone is incredibly inefficient. 500HP and 9hp/sec. Eul's and Drums is perfect for the start, Skadi/Heart are excellent luxury items after that.
[QUOTE=BuffaloBill;40626916]Yeah and for HP/Health Regen Bloodstone is incredibly inefficient. 500HP and 9hp/sec. Eul's and Drums is perfect for the start, Skadi/Heart are excellent luxury items after that.[/QUOTE] As an early item it has potential due to snowballing stacks, reducing respawn timer in case of death, healing allies for copulous amounts and providing excess manaregen in events of being manaburned. + With high defences due to armor/mr (Let's say Shiva) straight up +HP/sec (that aint disabled, like Hearts) is very powerful in fights, basically extending your EHP over time as it regens. It's not "be all, end all item" or a required element, but pub-wise or semi-carry wise it works, just like it does on most heroes who have no inherit reliable mana/hp regen.

BS Prophet is alright. Personally I like getting Eul's to cover mana regen(+the MS increase+the disable) and a heart. I also get phase(into BoT) and drums with that build because her ability to chase with her ult is one of the best in the game. That being said, nothing beats facerolling an enemy team, getting killed, spawning 2 seconds later, and BoT back to their base to do it all over again.
